Ok so I finally broke down and decided to get a SuperSlick. I had avoided them because they are bigger than bit, and I'm happy with my bits.

It should have been an easy decision, but I wanted the Blue Mini, and it was only in the first generation. So I had to decide beteween the Subaru rally car, or the gold Mercedes. I got the Mercedes, but considering it sits on the chassis like an off road car, I wish I got the Subaru. Then I had to get the body set with the Mini body, luckily that body sits much better. They must have had to raise the new ones up for the lights. Then I had to get the 1/4 mile race kit for the fastest motor and gears. So now I got 2 EVO bodies I won't use.

Here's the pile of crap I ended up with just to get one car, and be satisfied.




So I get it home, and I'm checking out what the "Fully Loaded" Super Slicks have to offer. Well let's see, we got the lights, that make the body sit high on the chassis, so that's not cool, we got the turbo, that has the turbo button in an awkard stretch for my thumb, so that's not cool. We got the drift feature, which means we can drive with our body on backwards, now that's just funny, I'll write that off as a joke. Then there's the selectable frequencies, which is cool if you have more than one car, but i don't think I'll be buying another of these, so will someone help me out here, why did I want the Fully Loaded Super Slick? There must be something I missed, because I'm wishing I just settled for that first generation Blue Mini at this point.

I haven't actually played with it yet, so I'll reserve judgement, but right now I'm thinking I don't care for the new "Fully Loaded" Super Slicks.


Well I'm off to go play now.

Is that how the drift ability works???..... Oh wow, that sounds gay. Well I know I will be getting one of these some time soon, but that is a bit discouraging.

Because you're like me about shit like that. While reviews are great, you want to experience it first hand to see for yourself...


Sometimes you get burned, and sometimes not...

the "simultated drifting" bullcrap means you drive the car backwards with the body backwords. ie... fwd with steering from the rear.

im really starting to believe that superslicks really does follow mrcc's wants and wishes lol.

You're right payaso, I'm a sucker like that.

Really I don't want to be misunderstood on this. The Super Slick in a well put together car. That feels like a solid, quality piece of work. My bitch is the new Fully Loaded ones VS the first generation ones, and why I thought I needed the extra features. I'm thinking the added features actually detract from the car. I think I might even go back eventually and get that first generation Blue Mini, just to see if I missed out on anything, 'cause I really am a sucker like that.

I guess these newer ones come with a faster motor and gear than the first ones, so that's a bonus, I suppose.

Okay, that's like Richard Simmons level gay. I mean even gay people would say that's gay. Sad, really really sad.

Haha, that's funny, because you notice haven't seen anyone else do it? Cause none of us gonna cut a perfectly good car in half for no good reason, but you did, and I bet that car F'in kicks ass too.

I'm already making plans to modify a bit rear end to accept the extra motor I got now. I'm thinking with dual cells and FETs these motors should have more than enough power to go direct drive in a bit. Eliminating that idler gear should clear me enough room that way, but if I hardwire the motor and have it sticking out the side of the chassis, is it gonna clear the tire? I'll have to test.

Awwwww....I like my superslick. I've been bashing it all over the place having a good 'ol time. It could use some suspension though....its hard keeping it in a straight line because of the little grooves in my hardwood floor. My ZZ' s hold a straighter line that my SS. The SS actually holds a straighter line when I flip the body around and run it in "drift" mode. Its quick, tourqey, and the WRX body is nice.....mini-cooper body may be next if I decide to spend more cash.

ok 3 posts have been put up without the "drifting" ability being made fun of. So again, That it New VW beatle covered in rainbow stickers gay, just like Hogs ride.

dude ill drive it off a ramp straight up your ass. it would do that to. its that fuckin fast.

See, your just proving how gay it is.

no you are urking me on to do this.

Unless you can find somthing not gay that would involve a SS going up someones ass I am sticking w/ my "the drifting feature on the new SS is Gay" theroy.
